  Hi Tane, 



  Deli-licious will not be available on New Years Day. We could still meet and play in the parking lot or the side yard if the weather is okay. Bring a chair?


  Thanks,


  Lucas

  Fáilte (welcome) to this month's 3rd Sunday Session. 3rd Sunday of
  the month, 2 - 4 p.m., December 18, at The Buttery bakery and cafe,
  at 702 Soquel Avenue close to downtown Santa Cruz. This is a slow
  session. Bain sult as! (enjoy)

  Etiquette guidelines:
  1) Going around in a circle, everyone has a turn to choose a tune and
    the tempo.
  2) Try to maintain the tempo set by the person who chose the tune.
    Conversely, if you choose a tune and tempo and find that the tempo
    gets sped up too much while playing, don't be shy about asking that
    it be immediately played again sticking to the slower tempo -- it's
    good practice for everyone.
  3) A single tune is played 3 times. In a set, each tune is played
    twice.
  4) If needed, bring your music stand and tuneset book. Here's a
    website with tips on playing by ear:
    http://www.slowplayers.org/SCTLS/learn.html
  5) Copies of the tuneset books generally used at slow session are
    sold for $15, and you can now download and print the 1006-tune
    "King Street Sessions Tunebook" for free at
    http://www.pacholo.com/mike/
    -- many thanks to Michael Long for putting the book together and
    now putting it online as well!
  6) All types of instruments are welcome and appreciated, but
    acoustic only, please!

  Some months we've played out on The Buttery's patio -- you can see
  two photos of this in Nick's blog entry
  http://quantumtantra.blogspot.com/2008/07/santa-cruz-session-relocates.html
  -- and other months we've been playing upstairs in an office, which
  you can see in these two photos
  http://flickr.com/photos/tachyon/2956709828/

  Basically, if you don't see anyone on the patio, go up the stairs on
  the left outside wall of the Buttery, and you'll find us in a room
  down the hall on the left.
